feat: add global rate limiting for OpenAI-compatible embeddings (#5854)

* feat: add global rate limiting for OpenAI-compatible embeddings

- Implement shared rate limit state across all embedder instances
- Add exponential backoff (5s base, up to 5 minutes max)
- Track consecutive rate limit errors with auto-reset after 60s
- Add thread-safe mutex for concurrent access
- Remove verbose logging to prevent log flooding during retries
- Add comprehensive test coverage for rate limiting behavior

This prevents multiple parallel batches from overwhelming APIs with
restrictive rate limits by coordinating delays globally.

* fix: restore original logging while keeping rate limit logging silent

- Restored all original console.warn and console.error calls that were inadvertently removed
- Only the rate limit retry warning remains silent (no console output)
- Fixed test expectation to use correct error variable
- All existing logging behavior is preserved
